Some people use the terms “verification” and “validation” interchangeably, but there are significant differences between them.

Some people disparage verification, or deny that it’s even involved in testing.

However, you can’t adequately build confidence and reduce risk in the software you test without using the proper mix of both.

In this webinar, Rex will clarify the meaning of these two terms, give examples, and explain why both are essential to proper software testing.
